Actually, the patch contains a red flag:

Setting max_lun to 1 can't be right.  My suspicion is that it's done to
turn off the REPORT_LUN scan that I've already said twice is necessary.

The DVD that's showing the problems needs to be blacklisted.

So, it's on my list to check carefully to see what else might have been
quietly slipped in there ... unfortunately, I haven't had much time
recently (and probably won't until the merge window closes) to give this
patch the thorough scrutiny it needs.
